Great stay, in lovely apartment with AMAZING views
We had a great stay, with some of the best views we have ever seen. The apartment is lovely, plenty of space, well equipped and I enjoyed the parking challenge ! Great communications with the owner.
Waking up to the amazing view of Lago Maggiore was the highlight of our trip. We so enjoyed our peaceful mornings and evenings on the large balcony. The apartment was clean and comfortable as well. Maciek was a wonderful host and a great communicator throughout the process. Highly recommend this property!
Wonderful, comfortable apartment! A bit remote, but worth it. There is a great cafe in Stropino only 5 minutes away for coffee or dinner. Enjoy a terrace with jaw dropping views! Communication was best ever!
Excellent choice to stay for a few days near Stresa at Lago Maggiore. Very neat appartment with large balcony and magnificent biew on the lake and mountains. You don't want to close the curtains at night! Check-in and check-out was very easy with all the information provided by Maciek.
My 5 stars say it all about the cleanliness of the place, the quality of the place, the kindness of the owner !
If you need to rest and breathe just book this place : morning sunrise on the huge terrace is an amazing moment that can only be matched by sunset lunch at the same place with that mind blowing view.
Thanks that was a very good time for me and my daughter!
Regards
The apartment is in a lovely spot with spectacular views across Lago Maggiore, and within easy driving distance of Stresa. The check-in process was simple, and Brenda and Maciek communicated very quickly and clearly. Their list of recommendations in the area were all excellent! We would highly recommend Brenda and Maciekâs apartment.
We had a very pleasant stay in Magognino, a quiet and welcoming little village. The apartment was lovely, comfortable, clean, well equipped and with a spectacular view over Lago Maggiore. We got to meet Maciek, the owner, very welcoming and helpful. Thank you, Maciek for taking the time to meet us!
Best communication with flat owner we've ever had. Immediate reply to all our questions.
Flat with great view but a bit to far away to buy quickly some bread rolls, etc.
We enjoyed the trip to LM with best weather. Special tip: Lago Maggiore Express and of course the small islands.
Fabulous views over Maggiore and a comfortable flat
The apartment is high up on the hillside looking over the lake. It is a wonderful location in a small village about 3 miles from Stresa. The flat was very comfortable and the balcony was lovely to relax on and to admire the view. There are also some good walks that pass through the village. It does feel a bit remote even in the village and the garage for the car is up a very very steep slope. Stresa was very touristy at the weekend but quiet in the week.
Schöne, neue, helle und sehr ruhig gelegene 2-Zimmerwohnung, gut im historischen Dorf integriert, gute Ausstattung. Zufahrt zur Garage erfordert fahrerisches Geschick, aber Alternative besteht.
Apartment was well appointed. You must have a car and be a good driver because you must drive into Stresa to eat or shop. We were charged 20 euros for towels and sheet but the listing said they were included. Beautiful view of the lake!!!
Unser Aufenthalt war wunderschön. Das Appartement bietet einen herrlichen Blick auf den See von der groĂzĂŒgigen Terrasse aus. Es war alles da, was man braucht und der Vermieter ist sehr nett und kĂŒmmert sich um alles. Man fĂŒhlt sich gut aufgehoben und willkommen.
Wohnung ist gemĂŒtlich eingerichtet. Leider war sie nicht sauber. Das hat die Reinigungskraft nicht geschafft .Reinigungsmittel waren vorhanden. So haben wir selbst eine Reinigung vorgenommen. Mal hatten wir warmes Wasser mal nicht. In der zweiten Woche war alles ok. Der Vermieter war sehr bemĂŒht.
Die Ausstattung und die Einrichtung waren gut.
Auch der Anfahrtsplan vom Vermieter war sehr gut. Wir haben die Wohnung gleich gefunden. Und hatten mit unserem BMW X1 keine Probleme. Die StraĂen sind dort natĂŒrlich sehr schmal.
Die Wohnung liegt oberhalb in den Bergen und man sollte unbedingt ein Auto dabei haben. Die Garage war eine wirkliche Herausforderung, da es sehr steil zur Garage ging und wir ein etwas gröĂeres Auto haben.
Der Blick von dem Balkon war umwerfend schön. In der Wohnung hat es an nichts gefehlt, ausser das das WLAN nicht zu gebrauchen war. Arbeiten war somit unmöglich. Der Stromleitung sprang auch stĂ€ndig raus, sobald zwei GerĂ€te in der Wohnung liefen. Die Agentur war immer ansprechbar und immer bemĂŒht eine Lösung zu finden.
Super Urlaub, allerdings braucht man zwingend ein Auto. Die Gastgeber sind super nett und helfen sofort. Ich hatte aufgrund eines Sturmes kein Internet mehr und es wurde sich direkt gekĂŒmmert. Einzig negativ war das Bett, welches bei jedem Umdrehen gegeknarrt hat.
Vi (familie pÄ fire - bÞrn pÄ 2 og 6 Är) havde fem dejlige dage her. Lejligheden fÞles rummelig og har en stor og lÊkker terrasse med den skÞnneste panoramaudsigt. KÞkkenet var udstyret med alt, vi havde brug for. Maciek var en meget opmÊrksom og hÞflig vÊrt, som altid svarede hurtigt. Der stod vand og vin til os, da vi kom - god service :-) DesvÊrre var vores bil (VW ID.4) for bred til den tilhÞrende parkeringsplads. Det fungerede dog fint for os, at lÊsse vores bagage af i kÊlderen og parkere ved byens kirke (5 minutters gÄtur). Der var ikke umiddelbart indkÞbsmuligheder i nÊrheden, sÄ vi kÞrte til Stresa for at handle ind (10 minutter i bil). Det var intet problem for os, og turen til Stresa var magelÞs. Vi kommer gerne igen.
Die Unterkunft ist wie beschrieben sehr schön und hell. Ein GeschirrspĂŒler wĂ€hre angebracht. Zu wissen das es im Dorf keinen BĂ€cker, Fleischer oder zum Essen Ausgehmöglichkeiten gib, wĂ€re hilfreich. Das die Garagenauffahrt eine Herrausforderung fĂŒr jeden nicht SUV fahrer ist, ist ja schon bei mehren Urlaubern zu vor schon beschrieben worden. (Unterboden und Kupplung lĂ€st grĂŒĂen) wir parkten dann doch lieber an der Kirche. Die Entfernung zum See ist auch nicht zu unterschĂ€tzen. Es sieht auf den Bildern nĂ€her aus als es ist. Trotz allen schöner Urlaub.
Originally from Poland and Mexico, we first visited this region some twenty years ago and had moved here permanently within the following few years. Having lived in several different countries, we truly enjoy traveling and meeting like-minded and interesting people from all over the world. Since first renting out our small apartment in Stresa back in 2008, we now manage numerous holiday properties around Lake Maggiore and throughout the greater Lake District. We also enjoy writing about the various places we visit and weâve recently published several travel guides covering this beautiful region. If you need some assistance renting out your holiday home, or you are looking for guidance on how to get started, we can help. Please visit www.trustycohost.com to learn about all the various services we offer. Thank you :)
Lake Maggiore, and the Lake District in general, is a great place to call home and makes for a wonderful holiday destination, offering a variety of fun and exciting activities at any time of the year, including mountain biking, hiking, sailing and skiing, just to name a few. In addition to the areaâs breathtaking natural beauty, the region is also incredibly rich in history and offers lots of wonderful cultural attractions, from medieval castles and amazing palaces overlooking the lakes to world-class museums and numerous architectural wonders in Milan, Como, Bergamo and other nearby cities. One of the best features of the Lake District is its central location and its proximity to so many other popular and famous destinations. Within just a few hours drive one can soak up the sun on the beaches of the French Riviera, taste some of the worldâs finest wines in beautiful Tuscany and enjoy truly spectacular alpine scenery while hiking around the Dolomites. Throw in a relatively pleasant climate, all the incredible food and the most delicious gelato and itâs easy to see why this is one of the nicest and most livable regions anywhere in the world.
Being one of the few modern properties in Magognino, our apartment boasts several useful and practical amenities which arenât always readily available within the region. Most impressive of those is the wonderful spacious terrace which offers stunning panoramic views of the lake and the surrounding mountains. A private garage on the premises, an elevator and a floor heating system are some of the other features that make our property stand out from most others in the area. The propertyâs location is also quite particular, offering both peace and tranquility as well as quick and convenient access to some of the areaâs most popular attractions.
